BlackBerry's App World didn't exactly get off to a flying start when it launched on Wednesday, with users running into problems with the new service.

Whilst for many the process was a quick download and installation, some BlackBerry owners were left seeing frustrating messages, for example that their device was incompatible.

However, RIM was quick to issue a new version of the App World software, replacing version 1.0.0.26 with 1.0.0.27, which for many resolved the problem.

So hats off to RIM for moving fast and fixing the problem. If you failed to install the new service on Wednesday, it is worth trying again, link below.
